At Balakian Farms, Amber focuses on preserving her family’s farming legacy while innovating to meet today’s demands, from tree fruit to our unique line of organic blended heirloom tomatoes. Amber is also a college professor, supporting students in developing entrepreneurial skills, and a passion for business.
